Scarlett Johansson’s Natural Treatments With Lemon

More Info

"My skin feels so congested when I travel. I drink a ton of water with lemon while I’m on board and steam my face as soon as I get off the plane. Lemon juice is also great for lightening. It can be a little bit stinging, so you can dilute it with water."

Our take: Water with lemon will keep your body alkaline and help the digestive system. The drink also has anti-swelling and skin-clearing properties. Lemon can also be used externally - it is particularly good for oily or acne-prone skin. Steaming is a great treatment for cleansing the skin; Karolina Kurkova is also a fan. However, remember that steaming your face is only one step of a larger process: the steam opens up the pores, but then you need to cleanse the skin, and preferably finish off with a cool water rinse. Also note that this may not be the best treatment if you have acne or have have just broken out.
